So 60 to 90 miles if you use the battery to depletion (which of course
you won't)

Like I said, a toy.

EVs may well become usable - Give em 250 usable miles in any weather,
and the chance to add another 100 miles in 10 mins at a refuelling
station and I would expect most people would be able to cope.



10mins to 'refuel' is too long, at least for traditional a 'stop on
journey fill up'. Think of a traditional petrol station, it takes a
couple of mins to fill yet there can still be queues. Increase the fill
time to 10 mins and there'd be chaos.



Now all you need do is build the nukes to power it all.



The tree huggers will love that.


I drive a hybrid- I'm no tree hugger, I liked the car and it fits our
usage pattern, I rarely charge away from home. Most local driving is all
electric but I know, on a long journey, I'll be running on petrol most
of the time.
